Need an observation beehive? We custom-build
glass observation hives for schools, nature centers, and yes, even
residences. Fantastic educational opportunity for kids...even big
kids. (A guaranteed conversation piece.)
Let us know the
size of your available space, and we will build a beautiful finished wood
hive with glass windows to fit with venting to outside. Maintenance
contracts available, or do-it-yourself (we can provide instruction!).
To see examples of our beautiful beehive displays
in Knoxville, you can visit the New Ijams Nature Center; the Children’s Discovery
Center in Chilhowee Park. Also you can see our observation hives every fall
as part of the Honey Show at the Tennessee Valley Fair.
We also provide
custom observation hives for two Knox County Schools - Green Academy and
Gap Creek School.
Schools and
Other Organizations
And speaking of
schools, Arnold Honeybee Services can come to yours...from preschool
to high school to home school, our honeybee presentation is a great way to
bring nature to your classroom.
Our
presentation includes materials, an observation hive with bees and a marked
queen, apiary equipment, a bee suit and hat to try on, pieces
of beeswax for everyone to take home, and even a taste of honey for every
student!
Not only do your
students learn the science of the beehive, they learn the role of bees in
our ecosystem and why it is so crucial to preserve this partnership.
